Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 medium red apples
8 wooden skewers
3 cups sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup water
1 drop cinnamon oil
1 teaspoon red food coloring

Steps:

  • Wash and dry apples; remove stems.
  • Insert skewer in stem end of each apple.
  • Mix sugar, syrup and water in a saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved.
  • Then cook (285F on candy thermometer), without stirring, until a small amount of mixture separates in threads that are hard but not brittle when dropped in very cold water.
  • Remove from heat and add flavouring and colouring, stirring only enough to mix.
  • Hold each apple by skewer end and quickly swirl in syrup, tilting pan to cover apple completely.
  • Remove from syrup, allow excess to drop off, then swirl to spread syrup smoothly over apple.
  • Put on lightly buttered baking sheet to cool.
